How To Make Hooked Rugs
Publisher: David McKay Company, Publishers, 1930 Philadelphia, PA.
Book. Book condition: Good. No Jacket. Hardcover 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall "Hooking a rug is the simplest sort of manual work. There is nothing difficult or complicated in the use of the hook. A glance at the illustrations in this book, or a knowledge of what has been done with the hook in Colonial days and during the recent widespread revival of the homely craft, convinces one that the art of hooking rugs has a limitless, personal variety of production. The chapter devoted to the making of the Lock Tender's Rug is the result of finding a hooked rug of charming simplicity in a Delaware and Lehigh Canal lock tender's home. This rug was acquired by the artist who made the hooked panel reproduced in color as a frontispiece to this book. Before the lock tender would hand over the rug the artist had to make a portrait pencil sketch of the lock tender's wife - a good likeness enhanced by water color..The artist made a fabric painting, using a hook instead of brushes and sensitively colored cloth instead of paint; the lock tender and his wife respected hooked rugs for their sturdy quality - they made the rug 'neat.' The hooking is regular, the lines of the simple design carefully followed. The portrait sketch was gladly taken in exchange for the rug. It had a personal value to them and was a compensation for the regret they instinctively felt at the thought of parting with the serviceable mat they had made. This pride of cration can be experienced by everyone who makes a hooked rug. It is the simplest of all craft work, and the design or plan of the rug may be simple or elaborate, according to the individual selection. Primitive motives of design anyone may make into a rug. The self-dependent spirit of Colonial days is the spirit of the hooked rug maker today. Make a rug of which you may proudly say, Yes, it's my own design.'" Very well illustrated. 154 pages. Book is in GOOD condition; foxing. No dust jacket.
